Welcome to North West Reno
Home to the University of Nevada, Reno.
North West Reno - or Old Northwest as some of us locals call it - is one of the original neighborhoods of Reno-Sparks. With views of the city from Rancho San Rafael Park, hiking trails up Peavine Mountain and easy access to Downtown and Midtown it’s easy to see the immediate appeal of this area.
North West is also the home to one of my favorite events in Reno, the great balloon race! If you have never been to a hot air balloon race before, you’re in for a treat. I had never been prior to living in Reno - but this quickly became my favorite reason to wake up at 3AM. Which is another reason to live in the North West, you won’t have to worry about finding a good parking spot for the fun stuff. Leave your car home, put a chair out in the front yard, and watch the show from your own home.
